Each dog is expertly trained to identify numerous controlled substances such as cannabis, cocaine, heroin, MDMA, ketamine, and the unlawful possession or distribution of prescription drugs.
Providing K9 drug detection in:
In Barry, Vale of Glamorgan, we provide drug detection dogs for proactive searches and passive screening, choosing the approach around your premises, visitor movements and security priorities.
When proactive searching is required, we work through designated vehicles, storage areas and rooms in an organised way. The handler guides the dog towards accessible locations where substances might be concealed.
For passive screening, the dog works around people passing through an agreed screening point. This approach can support events, educational settings and staffed entrances, with any indication referred to the agreed response procedure.
We can combine both methods, screening arrivals before searching storage or vehicles at a quieter time. Our handlers work to NASDU standards, with welfare, discretion and clear communication guiding the deployment.
